Wasps

To get a bit technical, wasps are insects in the Hymenoptera order and the Apocrita sub-order. Wasps are often mistaken for bees and confused with other stinging insects like hornets and yellowjackets. Wasps are notorious for building their nests right in places where people like to gather, like around your deck or under the eaves of your roof in your backyard, and for viciously defending their nests.

Wasps come in all shapes and sizes. Unlike bees, some wasps are solitary while others thrive in large colonies. Some wasps survive entirely on nectar from plants, but others are parasitic and will attack other insects. They have a painful sting, and unlike bees, wasps do not leave their stingers behind. That means they can sting someone over and over again - which makes them particularly painful pests.

Wasp Signs

Wasps create their nests from chewed wood or mud (depending on the species). The first sign that you have them is seeing increased wasp activity around your property. Areas where wasps might set up nests include:

Attics and rafters

Eaves or any kind of overhang

Garages, sheds and outlying buildings

Playground equipment and swing sets

Barbecue grills

Decks, pools and around patio

Although a wasps nest should not be disturbed, as you can see from that list, they often make their homes in places where they are likely to run into humans.

Dealing with a wasps nest can be very dangerous and that's why if you think you have a wasp problem a Western Exterminator wasp control professional should be called.

Wasp Sting Avoidance

First off, a wasp sting hurts. When their nests are threatened or disturbed, they will attack whatever that threat is. Given that a single wasp can sting multiple times, a number of attacking wasps can cause serious harm. Their stings do carry venom, which may be life-threatening to someone who is allergic to stings and they can be painful or get infected even if you don’t have allergies.
